Just like most areas of Sub Saharan Africa, the Kenyan coast is an endemic area for malaria. Kilifi is also home the prestigious Kenya Medical Research Institute funded by the Wellcome Trust, a major centre for clinical and epidemiological research on malaria. Thanks in large part to KEMRI, hospital admissions for malaria in the area have decreased these past two decades. Prophylaxis to prevent malaria remains recommended while you are in a malaria zone. If you’re traveling from overseas, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is a reliable source of advice if you must decide which Prophylaxis to take: https://www.cdc.gov/malaria/travelers/drugs.html.

We also encourage you to monitor the most recent medical advice concerning Yellow Fever – depending on where you plan travel before and after visiting Kilifi a Yellow Fever vaccine may be required. You may also want to read about CDC’s Dengue Fever advice. To stay informed about the CDC’s latest clinical advice before traveling to Kenya, please visit: https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/destinations/clinician/none/kenya

Being only three degrees south of the equator, Kilifi and most other parts of the Kenyan coast are pretty hot all year round. “Hot” can be a relative term though, depending on where in the world you are coming from, but most guests find it hotter than they are used to. The rainy and therefore cooler season is normally April and May, as well as July and August.

We have ample parking on site. For larger events and festivals parking is located just as you enter the site, about 400m from the main arena. For smaller private groups there is parking available closer to the arena. There will be security watching the cars during events.

We endeavour to make Beneath the Baobabs accessible to all. As such we will always have Disabled Parking available – usually we will let you drive into the event site.

For large public events these spaces must be booked in advance to ensure sufficient space, please contact us.

Please let us know of any specific requirements in advance to ensure we cater to your needs best we can. This can include a pre-event site visit for those with wheelchairs to ensure specific needs are met.
